ruby interface to the mtbl library

Introduction

ruby-mtbl is a Ruby interface to Farsight Security's mtbl library, which is a C implementation of the Sorted String Table (SSTable) data structure. The latest version of mtbl depends on zlib, LZ4 (dev branch > 129), and Snappy compression libraries.

On Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, the following command will install the required dependencies:

$ sudo apt install libmtbl-dev

This library is still a work in progress.
